What do two queer Colombians running on questionable sleep and armed with a microphone have in common? Apparently, enough to turn a simple interview into a therapy / jam session — which is exactly what happened when Eva Pagán sat down with me to ramble about her new song ‘Til I Die’.

​It feels oddly full-circle to be here, interviewing Eva. I’ve been following her since 2020, when she dropped ‘I’ve Never Written One Song About a Boy’ and instantly hooked me. This time, we yapped for 30 minutes (virtually), cracked open what she calls “cans of worms,” and shared a mini crisis over people asking if her rebrand means “she’s not gay anymore.”
